phase 1/2 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of inhaled ibio123 in participants with mild to moderate covid-19 illness

Conditions: COVID-19

Summary: this is a phase 1/2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single-dose escalating-dose study in participants with mild to moderate covid-19 illness.

participants will be randomized to placebo or ibio123. in the phase 1 portion of the study, a total of 24 patients will be enrolled in 3 cohorts of 8 patients each. six (6) of the 8 patients in each cohort will receive ibio123 and 2 patients will receive placebo. the first cohort will be dosed with 1 mg. subsequent cohorts will receive 5 mg, and 10 mg of ibio123 or matching placebo and will be dosed at least 1 week apart to allow for review of safety and tolerability data for each prior cohort. in the phase 2 portion of the study, as dose levels in phase 1 are determined to be safe, these dose levels may be introduced in phase 2 of study ibio-inh-001. this table describes the planned treatment arms. the phase 2 portion of the study will enroll a total of approximately 200 participants (150 participants on study drug \& 50 participants on placebo).
